Who we are
In Melbourne, water is essential to our way of life.
As caretakers for Melbourne’s water cycle, we care for water, life and land throughout Melbourne: both its people and its biodiversity.
Each time you drink from the tap, flush a toilet, run through a backyard sprinkler, or kayak down the Yarra—we’re there. Primed and ready, quietly delivering some of the world’s cleanest water for over five million residents and wildlife that call Melbourne home —just as we have for over 130 years.
If you value making it count, diving in with curiosity, and doing what’s right, you're in the right place.
About the Role
Reporting to the Lead Operator Winneke, this is a pivotal role within the Northern Operations team. As the Water Supply Operator you will be responsible for managing day-to-day and emergency operations of Melbourne Water’s water supply assets. These assets include; storage and service reservoirs, treatment plants, pumping stations and transfer mains. This involves practical hands-on operational duties, and the use of several IT systems including remote monitoring & system control.
About you:
- Certificate III or higher in Water/Wastewater Industry Operations is highly desirable
- Experience with water/wastewater treatment processes
- Experience in using other internal computer applications such as SCADA (either through Melbourne Water or a similar organisation).
- Ability to take accurate numerical readings and measurements.
- Ability to write clear incident reports and complete log sheets.
- Demonstrated problem solving capabilities
